In this intro- duction we will look at the early theorists who studied organizations and tie their work to our current understandings of organizational behavior and management theory. 1100-1200 Organizational Systems Theory Organizational theory and management practices have undergone substantial changes ;j recent .years,. Traditional theory has been modified and enriched by "General Systems Theory" research (' which views organizations as "open systems" in constani inter- action with their environment and composed of five interacting components: (1) goals and values; (2) technical; (3) structural; (4) psychosocial; and (5) management subsystems. We will examine in some detail these major subsystems in order to better under- stand how the Agency, and organizations in general, can function as effective social systems. 1200-1300 LUNCH SECRET Approved For Release 2007/04/05: CIA-RDP83B00140R000200040036-1 Approved For Release 2007/04/05: CIA-RDP83B00140R000200040036-1 SECRET MONDAY 21 Januar" J980, 1300-1400 -The Systems View Applied. � The speakers will use two examples of events or decisions which had sweeping organizational impact on the Agency.

Chief, Assessment Branch, OnS There has been much speculation in the last few years regarding the changing values and motives of the "new generation" of employees entering this organization and others. and his staff are responsible for evaluating, on a Gaily DUSIS, individuals applying to the Agency. We have asked him to reflect on what those of us already in the Agency should expect from this "new breed" of employees; that is, are there really any differences, what is their level of commitment, and do we need to manage differently? 25X1 25X1 1130-1300 LUNCH 1300-1600 Leadership: Taking the Initiative and Putting Thoughts Into Action The effective functioning of social systems is largely dependent on the quality of internal leadership. Research on the subject of leadership emphasizes the importance of decision-making as a central element in determining leadership effectiveness. This segment looks at the connection between leadership and decision- making in terms of a leader's ability to weigh decision situations and then act to make the best decision. These are decisions which not only emphasize quality, but also stress the importance of getting the followers to effectively carry them out. The subject area will be developed through discussions, short lectures, and small group exercises.

What are the barriers to effective communication? How can they be overcome? How much information should be communicated at various levels in the organization? What are the relevant structural considerations in communications? How are these impacted by differences in individuals' needs for information and skill in imparting information? During this session we will look at some of the answers to these questions: We will begin this topic by working through an exercise which uses three levels of interpersonal communications.

Leadership is the process of attempting to influence the activities of Others toward the accomplishment of organizational goals, and poWer is the means by which the leader actually gains compliance of the-followers; the two concepts are inseparable. Given this integral relationship between leadership and power, leaders must not only assess their leadership behavior- in order to understand how they actually influence other people, they must also examine their possession and use of power. "Star Power" is a simulation which makes this relationship more explicit as it exists in organizations. 'Star Power is a bargaining and negotiating game which focuses on the participants' ability to influence others. 1130-1230 Leadership Training Staff Critique 1300- Depart SECRET Approved For Release 2007/04/05: CIA-RDP83B00140R000200040036-1 Approved For Release 2007/04/05: CIA-RDP83B00140R000200040036-1 � SECRET 1600-1900- 1900-2100: SUNDAY, 27 January'�980.- PHASE II - THE AGENCY Evening Session An Evening with the Associate Deputy Director for Operations- John Stein Associate Deputy Director for Operations Hr.
